You are a key partner in your child's growth and development, and we look forward to building a strong partnership with you.

Welcome!

At the Homewood Early Learning Center your child will receive emotional support, intellectual stimulation, creative outlets and social interaction in a safe and secure environment that offers the time and space to develop at his or her own pace.

Children are marvelous learning machines—born ready to learn. Through play, they learn to make choices and navigate relationships. Making play dough helps them learn the science of mixing and heating. Blocks teach symmetry, gravity, design, and math concepts such as fractions. While doing all this play, children also learn colors, shapes, letters, and executive function skills such as reasoning, problem solving and planning.

Homewood Early Learning Center (ELC) accommodates up to 94 children, ages 10 weeks through preschool, and is open to all, including community members. However, priority admission is available to Johns Hopkins parents.
